The benefit to the play is that pressing on one string feels essentially the same as pressing on any other string. This is especially important for string-bending. Once you learn how much pressure is necessary to bend one string to increase the pitch 1/2 step (for example), the same pressure will increase the pitch 1/2 step on any other string. **Q: Are these strings coated? The "XL" implies so...** A: NYXL strings are not coated, and XL is just a product series/family name, which does not imply any specific product specs. - Steve @ D'Addario **Q: So what do you Blues players have to say about these strings?** A: Depends on the type of blues you play.... If you lean more toward "Delta", you probably wont like these much 'cause they give you more bottom end and highs and get rid of that muddy low-mid much sought-after in that style. Otherwise, many of us who pursue the more recent guitar gods (aka Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Page, etc.) will probably find these strings to be a nice "push" - to some, it will be like adding well-needed air to a deflating balloon. **Q: Ya but does it djent?** A: My answer is yes. Great for metal and black metal. Not sure about math metal but I would stick with yes. Nita Strauss does solo work in heavy metal and only uses these strings. Same goes for me , and the many guitarists I play with. Used them in Vegas and received many compliments. To really enhance your sound your pedal board will need some adjustments.. You can also check https:/djenthub.com. Between my son, who has ten Solar guitars ,and my seven guitars, esp my Steve Vai blue floral jemm 77p and my Nita Strauss signature jiva 10 these are the only strings we use Good luck is your decision. Just keep in mind we all hear and feel things differently but so many of the musicians I play with all use these strings. Keep on rockin. And keep metal alive ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ SERIOUS quality control issues with D'addario *by on Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates 21 May 2023* Firstly, the color codes on the strings were incorrect. The first string and sixth were switched, same with fifth and second, and third and fourthSecondly and more important, the 6th string wasn't even a 6th string. It had a smaller gauge than the 5th string which created CRAZY fretbuzz and led me on a 2 day nightmare of adjusting my entire bridge until I gave up and accepted the buzz. Absolutely disastrous quality control. Went on Google to see if other had this problem only to see that this problem is so widespread that I'm never considering D'addario again My first set of D'addario string and also my last. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ By far , the best value *by on Reviewed in the United States 6 November 2023* I was already using these strings, so when I saw how much cheaper it was to buy this huge master pack, it was a no brainer. Amazon was also offering where you could pay for it over 3 months. Great deal all the way through. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good strings at a cost *by on Reviewed in the United States 14 August 2023* Great sounding strings. Prefer to use them with stainless steel frets. I find them having a «medium» lifespand. Fairly costly, but another league than strings like the ernie ball regular slinkys and regular XL’s. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - NYXL Electric Guitar Strings - NYXL1046 - Unrivaled Strength, Tuning Stability, Enhanced Mid-Range - For 6 String Guitars - Made in the USA - 10-46 Regular Light, 1-Pack - D'Addario Accessories Pro-Winder Guitar String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Pin Puller - All in One Guitar Tool - Black - Elixir Strings, Acoustic Guitar Strings, 80/20 Bronze with NANOWEB Coating, Longest-Lasting Bright and Focused Tone with Comfortable Feel, 6 String Set, Light 12-53 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/259817694-daddario-guitar-strings-nyxl-electric-guitar-strings-nyxl1046-unrivaled-strength](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/259817694-daddario-guitar-strings-nyxl-electric-guitar-strings-nyxl1046-unrivaled-strength) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-08-29*
